City Comparisons

Here, we display each individual grant source and its total funding value. Then, we look at the total funding value for the closest 5 cities (absolute distance) via three metrics: average population, number of fatal shootings, and number of shootings per 100k residents.

For example, the closest 5 cities by population to Memphis (which had a population of 640,289 people) were:

  • New York, New York (8,565,298 people)

  • Baltimore, Maryland (594,084 people)

  • Detroit, Michigan (655,330 people)

  • Saint Louis, Missouri (302,217 people)

  • Dallas, Texas (1,321,780 people)

For the closest cities by population, we show in red the grant categories where memphis is relatively under-funded, and in green, those where it is relatively over-funded.
